That is indeed helpful and thank you for sharing the images. I must admit that the idea of a pre-fabricated arrangement being offered up for attaching would make the most sense following the making of templates in cardboard/ thin plywood etc. What was the actual design criteria for these lockers/ bins as there are quite a few. What would the vehicle have used them for. You mention your carrying tools etc. Would they have been used for CES items?

What thickness/ gauge of steel did you use and what it the same thickness as the original panels would have been?

The rear /side/ top lockers are different to yours and I do remember one of the longer panels being at Casa Clive last time I visited. You did also have front wing/ mudguard panels from memory for one side. Was that correct. In hindsight now I would like to purchase those so can they be set aside for when I collect the filter and headlights next time.

It is interesting to see your FV1609 in such a condition of work in progress especially as it looks so resplendant now. She's a credit to your hard work. Have a beer on me for all your continued support. Much appreciated.
